Large Parts with Joints : Optional Add
on feature for PLUS 1D

The part made using joints or has length more than that of stock length is
called Large Part. In PLUS 1D you can automatically split the large parts into
small pieces and than these small pieces can be optimize to maximize yield. Then
there are some Joint
Rules / Splicing Norms/ Engineering constraints which are considered while splitting these
large parts. This module is available
with PLUS 1D version 6.xx and later.
